I was born in Belgium and moved over as a kid to the United States. I grew up back and forth between both countries and was fortunate to travel a bunch growing up. After college, I moved to China and ended up living there for 7 years. I've also spent time living in Japan and France.

Playing music, first trumpet in school and then guitar as a teenager, was initially one of my main tools for creative expression. My goal was always to be able to "jam" and play improvisational pieces.

For most of my life, I shunned exploring visual arts as an avenue for self-expression - primarily out of doubt and lack of formal educational experiences. I harbored a belief visual arts were meant for "someone else." This all changed late one evening in November 2013 when I started playfully experimenting. Mediums to date have included acrylics, markers, oil, paper collages, pastels, spray paint, digital, ceramics and crushed metal.

Professionally, you can learn about me here. I studied physics in school, which led me to coding and the tech industry, which has led me to working with a bunch of different endeavors. It's all the same of course: in my work as with art projects, I'm happiest when I find myself in situations where I can improvise and collaborate with kindred spirits...
